Michael Schumacher only communicates with others by using his eyes following his life-changing ski incident in 2013.
The F1 legend has been missing from public life since the accident over ten years ago, which put him in a coma.The 55-year-old collided head-on with a rock while skiing the French Alps, leading to a fractured skull and a brain injury.Few details of his condition have been revealed since a statement released nearly a year after the accident told fans he was no longer in a coma and was “continuing a long phase of rehabilitation”.
Rumours that Schumacher is unable to speak appeared to be confirmed by his son, Mick, during a 2021 Netflix documentary about his father's life.He said: “I think dad and me, we would understand each other now in a different way now.” The last proper update fans received was in 2023, when it was reported that Schumacher had been driven in a Mercedes AMG sports car in a bid to stimulate areas of his brain he once used for racing.
